I'm getting my top braces today!! Bottoms in approx. 3 months time. I'll let you know how it all goes!! I'm planning on black and pink ligatures.

Hope it goes well! I had black and pink first time round too.

Hey, congrats...I just got mine yesterday. I got both tops and bottoms on. I wish I could have it done your way, as I too have a really deep bite. The orthodontist just put a stopper on my molars so that I can't bite down all the way.

If I hadn't gone with the Damon braces that don't use ligs I too would have picked pink and black...in fact I'm a bit jealous that I don't get to change mine up at all.

Best of luck to you!

I got mine on this morning, good luck with yours ilovemacs!

Jordanna, I had to have my molars built up too so my teeth weren't hitting my brackets. It is waaaay annoying to only have 4 teeth touching! My bite looks all kind of weird right now! I'm hoping a benefit of that will be some weight loss,

Thanks everyone!! It went well! They indirect bonded them meaning they put a tray like a mouthguard with the braces in them and pop they're on!!
I think there's still some glue on the back of my teeth!! Ew!! What do I do about that? She tried to get it off but couldn't find it??!! I could feel it, I don't know if it's glue exactly but it's something. I got pink and black, it looks good!! I recommend it!! I even went back to school after!! Also for some reason my back molars (last teeth) aren't braced?? They won't be extracted, I would have asked but didn't know until I was back at school!! Anyone know??!!
Thanks!!
